Speaker Network
Organise a fundraising event
Fundraising doesn’t have to be time-consuming or elaborate ― often the simplest ideas are the most successful. Whatever your interests, there is an event you can plan around the activities you love and also raise money for WOMANKIND at the same time. The most important thing is to have fun, make the event something you will enjoy ― and get your families, friends, colleagues and even your community to join in.
Whatever you decide to do, we are here to help you every step of the way. You can download our really easy-to-follow fundraising pack or can contact us to get a copy by post.
If you need help deciding on an event ― or advice about anything to do with fundraising ― please get in touch. We can provide posters and leaflets and, if appropriate, will arrange for a member of our volunteer speakers network to come to your event and speak about WOMANKIND’s work. Contact Julia by e-mail at julia@womankind.org.uk or call 020 7549 0360.
Anita Woodcock used her experience as a trainer to organise a personal development workshop (pictured left) to raise money for WOMANKIND. She persuaded a local venue to let her use their facilities free of charge. Anita then asked fellow trainers to volunteer for the day and contacted her local newspaper, which was happy to publicise the event.
Around 60 women came along and had a fabulous day, learning to challenge their fears and to realise their dreams. And the event raised almost £2,000 for WOMANKIND Worldwide.
